N0n kippur.

Tomorrow will be Yom kIppur or the
day of at0nement in the Hebrew church,
being the crown of all festivals the hottest
of all holy days of the year. 1t is celebrat-
ed on the 10Th day of Tishri, commencing
as all Jewish festivals do-with evening
and ending with evening The sublime
idea underlying this Jewish festival is
that of Gods infinite mercy that extends
even to the deepes, fallen sinner, and for
gives his sins and transgressions as soon
as he, in sincere repentance, returns TO the
path of virtue and righteousness, and
seeks reconciliation with his heavenly
Father and with his fellowmen.
This WAS the only day of the wear when
the high priest entered the hottest place
OF the sanctuary, and in his prayers for
forgiveness of sins which he and his
house and all the congregation had com
mitted, pronounced the ineffable name of
the Most High
The day of atouement il now generally
spent in the synagogue. where the fasting
congregation gathers for common deyo-
ton, In all parts of the globe, those
who belong to the house of Israel, with
very few exceptions, abstain on this day
from food and every enjoyment and bus
mess for twenty four hours, to spend
most OF this time in the house of worship.
The local lsrselites give the day to de-
votion in the Y. NJ. c. A rooms, com
mcncing at Z O'Clock this evening.

Wcyerhauser's Ri. Deaf.

The ARGUS has recently spoken of Mr..
Fred Weyerhauser latest deal He is
said to be negotiating, as president of the
Mississippi River Logging company, for
the purchase of the Knapp, Stout y Cos
saw mill plant and Red Cedar river pine
lands. The headquarters of Knapp,
Stout & Co. are at Menominee, but the
company has several saw mills besides
the two there, and heavy interests at
Dubuque and ST Louis If the deal is
consnmmated, it will be one of Sc, 900. =
900 or s., 600, 200. The report. following
the purchase of the Eau Claire lumber
company's plant gives color to the belief
in many quarters that the Mississippi
River Logging company will ere long
control the bulk of the lumber interests
of northwestern Wisconsin. The immense
purchases which Mr. Weyerhauser has
made the past year seem to Justify this
expectation. II Is learned from good
authority that Mr. Weyerhauser privately
said the other day, that he had made
Knapp, Stout & Co. al offer, and that it
might take three hours and might take
three weeks 10 complete the deal

the plant for which is now standing idle in
this city. There is no question Of the abil.
lily Of Ottawa TO make stonewsre at profit,
aad there are gentleman with the necessary
technical knowledge, experience at the bench
and at the kiln, to make ware provided the
working capital is forthcoming. The work
men now here, anxious to see the pottery
start up again, do not particularly desire a
share in the management or profit of the
concern, further then situations as turner's,
&c; still they are willing to 90 into the pot
terry, make the ware, put it in the wareroOm
at a certain price to the seller, (who furnish
A. the capital) and so relieve man who
could sell the ware, but does not understand
the technical processes, of responsibility Of
making the ware. We personally knew these
gentleman who are known TO be sober, relia,
BILE and industrious men, who being here
prefer to stay rather than incur the expense
of removing their families to other places,
The larger part of the ware used in the
northern part of the state and Chicago is
supplied by the stoneware potteries of Ohio.
There is no pottery nearer to Ottawa Except
at LOVELY than Peoria and Macomb, Ill.
Ii would not be difficult matter to find one

product of the kilus at profit. We deem
this pottery the best manufacturing invest
